Loading API

The Loading API lets you display a loading indicator in the Shopify admin header. Use this to signal that a page is loading, data is being fetched, or an upload is processing. The indicator appears at the top of the admin and persists until you explicitly stop it.

  • Page transitions: Show a loading indicator in the Shopify admin during page transitions or route changes.
  • Data loading: Indicate data is being fetched from your backend or the Shopify API.
  • Upload processing: Signal to merchants that an upload is being processed.
  • Async operations: Provide visual feedback during any asynchronous operation that takes time.

The loading function controls the loading indicator in the Shopify admin header. The indicator persists until it's explicitly stopped.
